Don’t Let Your Baby’s Toys Hold Back Development (7 Key Toy Upgrades at 6 Months)

Frequently changing your baby's toys as they grow doesn't just prevent them from getting bored with them. It's actually really beneficial for their development as well!

Selecting age-appropriate toys helps facilitate healthy gross motor and fine motor development. When the toys are age-appropriate, they're also more fun for children because they can actually use them, and they provide stimulation and challenges that are suitable for their current stage of development.

At 6-9 months of age there are some big changes in your baby's development that mean it's time for a little toy box upgrade to really help the development of their fine motor skills. In this video you'll learn which toys to swap out, and the best toys for 6-9 month old babies. And don't worry, these aren't super expensive options either!

Please make this for 12+ months! 😅 this is exactly what I need

[mommybreakdown]

By taking the top off of the shape sorter, it creates its own "bucket" and makes it easier for younger kiddos. You also showed how you can use the toys on a play mat even after a child is beyond that stage. What a great way to stretch our toys out for longer periods, and still help our kids. Thanks!

Learned a lot about toys 🧸 and developmental milestones after watching this video. Wish YouTube was around when I grew up in the early 80s. That would’ve been so nice 😊

[suzanneward-ky]

Emma you are an absolute breath of fresh air to listen to and learn with confidence that the information your giving our mums is professionally sound and full of educational facts. Thankyou

Hi Emma, I've looked through your videos but can't see anything on helping your toddler learn to jump. So requesting a jumping skills video! My 2.5 year old (quite delayed due to being born at 25 weeks) is catching up on a lot but cannot seem to jump. He gets bending his knees and coming up...but doesn't understand pushing through his feet. Bonus comment - your videos are awesome and I recommend them every time someone in my premmie baby support group says 'help my baby isn't doing this is it because of prematurity'. You've helped us all help our babies learn. ❤

Ok. I have to admit, i had a hard time following what you're saying, just cause the footage of all the babies playing was just way too cute!! 😅

[Shimmeringaphrodite]

Hi Emma, thanks a lot for this. I have learnt so much from your videos. My nearly 6 month old has achieved all her milestones in advance and is ready to crawl. Eternally grateful ❤

[priyankapattanaik]

[loodasanjarka]

I am so happy that i switched to these without knowing those are actually the best ones to switch to😄 i have all that was in this video without even knowing 😄

[streetballazzz]

Hi emma
Our little one has started roll around and his baby gym is not big enough

What to do. Do you reccomend large playmats? Can you name a few please

[maddiejoy]

My son wouldn't use any teether besides Sophie. We offered him probably 6 different teethers, but Sophie was his favorite. I'm usually all about bargain brands, used items, etc, but I 100% believe in buying a real Sophie for each of my babies.

[PG-sbzq]

Your channel is our go to guide for everything baby. Thank you❤. I read that silicone teethers could be a possible choking hazard for babies. We have other teethers he loves. Actually everything goes into his mouth at 8 months😅

[jemimah_ayua]

This is not related to what you posted but I’ve been watching your videos for months now and wow! All your babies look alike🥹. Especially your boy and 2nd girl

[flormiranda]

Thank you for this video! I find it hard to look for toys since most website doesn’t have a way to sort the search for the age of the baby, so it makes it harder to know which toy would be best for their development stage.

[sgtigereye]

I appreciate this because I have been wondering what toys to take out of rotation since my little turned 1!

[kasban]

Your topics are always sooo timely! I've been watching for the last ten months for the benefit of my twin boys :)

[jerikavendrell]

Just the video I needed! 😃 Thank you SO much, Emma!! I’ve been following you since I was pregnant and every tip has worked like a charm 🌟

[RobMedellin]

Will you do the "upgrades at 1yr"? If so... When should we expect it? 😅

[AleciaCox-hczl]

Hi Emma, thank you for making. The video you mention to watch hindering baby development does not appear. What is the name of the video to search for? Thanks alecia
